Expressive Concert Body Tone with a Smooth, Natural Sand Burst Finish

The Yamaha FSX800C SDB pairs a comfortable concert-style cutaway with a solid spruce top for crisp articulation and balanced projection. Its nato and okume back and sides add warmth to the tone, while the newly developed scalloped bracing lets the top resonate more freely, boosting volume and responsiveness across the low to mid range. The slim, compact body makes it an excellent choice for younger players, fingerstyle guitarists or anyone who prefers a lighter, more intimate feel. Finished in an elegant Sand Burst gloss, it offers a classic look with modern reliability. The onboard System66 preamp and under-saddle piezo ensure clear, controllable amplified sound, complete with tuner, 3-band EQ and Mid Frequency adjustment.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the FSX800C SDB is perfect for players wanting a smooth, versatile acoustic-electric that’s easy to play and visually refined.
